EP349: Climate and Environment with Dr Fiona Foo Part 2

  • Summary

  • Welcome to my podcast. I am Doctor Warrick Bishop, and I want to help you to live as well as possible for as long as possible. I’m a practising cardiologist, best-selling author, keynote speaker, and the creator of The Healthy Heart Network. I have over 20 years as a specialist cardiologist and a private practice of over 10,000 patients. Fiona Foo, a cardiologist, discusses the impact of traffic-related air pollution and climate change on cardiovascular health. Traffic emissions are a significant cause of death and cardiovascular disease, with idling vehicles being a particular problem. Extreme heat and heat waves also have serious cardiovascular consequences, especially for vulnerable populations like the elderly, those with underlying conditions, and outdoor workers. Climate change is worsening mental health issues like anxiety and depression, which in turn negatively impact cardiovascular health. Addressing these environmental factors is crucial for improving public health and sustainability.
